It is entirely, COMPLETELY, about control and subjugation. If it were not, people opposing abortion would be the loudest and most powerful champions in the world of sex ed, contraception, protections against intimate partner violence, gender equality, and universal health care.

If you told me 3 years ago that a pandemic would soon kill 1 million people in the US, I would have been horrified. But I would have been devastated if you told me it would happen with little national mourning and few fundamental changes to prevent it from happening again.

“Women can’t have rights because they have a deeply rooted history of not having rights” is not the winning argument Republicans think it is.

Now is a great time to write a short email to the students who did well in your class and letting them know that you saw that they did well. You'll be surprised by the positive and emotional response--good students are rarely acknowledged as such. #AcademicTwitter

"In 2009 Colorado began offering teens free IUDs without parental consent. Within 8 years teen pregnancies dropped 54%. Teen abortion rates fell by 64%. For every $1 spent on the program the state saved $5.85 in labor and delivery costs, child-care assistance and food stamps"

I grew up in the pro-life movement, and listening to people today solemnly warn that pro choice protestors are “crossing a line” by protesting on a public street outside someone’s home is fucking *rich* The anti abortion movement did *targeted assassinations of doctors*

If you think SARS-CoV-2 is manageable because it’s now something more akin to seasonal influenza, a reminder: Typically around 30,000 people die of seasonal flu in the US per year. Over 200,000 have died of COVID in the US in 5 months of 2022 so far. The pandemic is not over.

The Wheel of Computer Security 1. Cool new platform to deploy code on! 2. Oops, it's completely insecure. 3. Add isolation vs. untrusted data and code 4. Oops, we can't build apps. 5. Punch holes in the isolation boundary. 6. Oops, still insecure and apps are lame. 7. Go to #1.

Welcome to Texas. Today abortion, a medical procedure, is now a felony. Punishable with up to life in prison. No exceptions for rape or incest. If you don’t think this will seriously impact medical care, you are wrong. 1/

As I stroll on TikTok, I keep seeing parents video their children reacting to The Little Mermaid trailer. So instead of focusing so much on the negative, I thought I’d show a thread of the little black kids who are excited to see their favorite princess look like them.
